About me
I am currently serving as a researcher in NTT Human Informatics Laboratories. My current research topics lie in deep learning applications in natural language processing and vision & language, in particular, visual document understanding. Concurrently, I am also pursuing my Ph.D. at Tohoku NLP, under the supervision of Prof. Jun Suzuki. I obtained my B.Eng. and M.I. degrees from Nagoya Institute of Technology in 2018 and 2020, respectively, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Akinobu Lee.
